iPhone or Blackberry? iPhone. I’ve found that using an iPhone for work is a painful and maddeningly slow experience… I’m becoming increasingly jealous of my Blackberry-toting friends.

Star Wars or Star Trek?Yes ;-)

Coolest new tech venture in Seattle: I’m really excited about all of the alternative energy providers that are starting up… I’m hoping to switch from running Biodiesel to Algae sometime very soon. ;-)

When did you first know you were a geek? Describe that moment: I ran a BBS when I was 11, and I would skip school lunches in order to save money to upgrade the hardware.

Who are your geek heroes, and why?Carl Malamud is my geek hero, and should be yours too. He’s single-handedly responsible for getting more government data and resources online than any other individual. He’s currently campaigning to follow in Benjamin Franklin’s footsteps and become the Public Printer for the United States (Yes We Scan!)
